What is a 12 panel storyboard template?

A storyboard is a sequence of drawings that shows how your film will look, shot by shot. This 12 panel template provides small panels for quick thumbnails, along with space to note camera moves, dialogue and action beside each frame.

Why do I need a storyboard?

Storyboarding helps you test ideas before you spend time and money on set. It helps you communicate your vision to the director of photography, actors and crew, plan coverage and spot problems early. You do not need to be a skilled artist, as simple sketches, stick figures and notes work well.

When should I use a 12 panel layout?

Choose this layout for rough thumbnails, whole-scene overviews and early planning. In practice, twelve small panels per page are ideal for loose thumbnail sketches when you want to explore ideas fast before refining key frames.
